As with V1 we have a very conservative charging philosophy getting max life out of the batteries. Negative point that it takes longer to reach a good full charge. hence we advise overnight charging.
Rgds and enjoy. Hans.  |
Hi Hans,
Thanks for your reply! If you don't mind, I like to clarify what you have said. It looks like I can conveniently plug the iQube V2 into my computer via the usb input and leave it switched on indefinitely. And this will not significantly shorten the life of the batteries as they are on a very conservative charging program. Moreover, the rechargeable batteries can remain dripple/trickle charged indefinitely without problems. Is that right  ?
Thanks!

Hans,
I have another question.
Can it play while fed by a wall charger?

Hmmm, my plan is to feed it by another USB DAC and in the mean time, charge it by the the wall charger through USB input.
However, when I do that, there's no sound coming out. And when I un-plug the wall charger, there's sound. Really have no idea about this.

Oh, my bad. I kept thinking charging by my laptop and by the wall charger is different.
